Paulo Cesar Leite dos Santos, or Mestre Pintor as he is known within Capoeira circles, is the master of Grupo Bantus Capoeira in Brazil. He started playing around with Capoeira on the streets as a teenager. Later on he trained in Belo Horizonte and then Bahia with various masters, chasing after knowledge of Capoeira, before coming to rest in the academy of Mestre Joao Pequeno of Pastinha in Salvador, Bahia. He graduated as a master in 1989 with the group of Macaco at the Escola de Educacao Fisica in Belo Horizonte, and after a few more years training with Mestre Joao Pequeno also graduated as a master of Capoeira Angola.

The name Bantus refers to a broad African ethnic group, the Bantu people, who shared a similar language root and occupied two thirds of West Africa (Angola, Guinea, Congo, Mozambique etc). The term Bantu refers to over 400 different ethnic groups from the West African region. –NTU means “human” and BA- indicates a plural, put together it means “people”. Bantus Capoeira has its headquarters in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, and also has groups in Australia, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan, Israel, Indonesia, and Holland. Grupo Bantus Capoeira approaches capoeira as a holistic art form. Angola, Regional, Contemporanea, Maculele, Samba de Roda, and other forms of Brazilian culture are taught in our academias and studios across the globe. In which ever city we train, we are known as the friendliest capoeira group around.
